mikko joensuu - pearly gates lyrics

Loading...

i bow my head before a god made of words
he showed me a sound only wise men have heard
i bow my head before a god made of words
he made a woman out of bone and a man out of dirt
or so i have heard

now i met a man with sadness-filled eyes
trying so hard to act paralyzed
now i met a man with sadness all over his eyes
it was not long til i realized

that he’s made of flesh nor bones
he’s an idea that wonders and roams
he’s not made out of flesh nor bones
he’s a voice that does not sing but moans
a trombone producing unknown tones

so lift up your voice, it’s time to rejoice
i was told with a smile, as if had a choice
we’ve all arrived to be purified
well it’s not even close to what i had in mind

but lead me down at the pearly gates
lead me down where we’ll be saints
lead me down, down at the gates

a thought that crossed my mind, i never spoke out loud
it let me go unnoticed, like a shadow in a crowd
a thought that crossed my mind, i never spoke out loud
it helped god from being proud and keeps the devil bound
for a while

now god, he did not care or he just did not understand
devil got excited and with a grin he shook my hand
he said in the heart of my land
there’s something that i’d understand
oh, but i did not care

he said son, with your voice you’re allowed to rejoice
he said with a smile, as if i had a choice
we’ve all arrived to be purified
well it’s not even close to what i had in mind

but lead me down at the pearly gates
lead me down where we’ll be saints
lead me down, down at the gates

lead me down at the pearly gates
lead me down where some will be saints
lead me down, down at the gates

lift up your voice, it’s time to rejoice
i was told with a smile, as if had a choice
we’ve all arrived to be purified
well it’s not even close to what i had in mind

but lead me down at the pearly gates
lead me down where some will be saints
lead me down, down at the gates
